Mark Robinson, the Republican nominee for governor in North Carolina, has faced significant controversy over his remarks about women losing their voting rights and other issues. Robinson, a MAGA supporter and hardline conservative, has been labeled a far-right extremist by some media outlets. His comments about reverting to a time when women did not have the right to vote have elicited strong backlash and accusations of voter exclusion. His stance on a variety of issues has further fueled the media frenzy, painting him as an incendiary figure and receiving accusations of Holocaust denial and Hitler-related remarks, which have largely been ignored by mainstream publications. Despite these criticisms, he won the Republican primary race, leading to a heated race with the Democratic nominee, Josh Stein.

Many of the corporate press reports on Robinson have been described as lies and distortions by some conservative outlets, accusing the media of attempting to smear Robinson with fabricated information. Robinson's controversial statements, including remarks about voting rights, women's rights, and Judaism, have been widely debated and discussed, portraying him as a polarizing figure in North Carolina politics. Some sources have highlighted his hardline conservative views and labeled him as a Trump favorite, emphasizing his victory in the Republican primary as an indication of ongoing polarization in the political landscape. Despite criticisms and controversies surrounding Robinson, and accusations of extreme right-wing leanings, his win poses a significant challenge to his Democratic opponent, Josh Stein, and has drawn attention on a national level due to his hardline positions and the divisive nature of his campaign.
